The last response from Microsof was on Jun 9 2016. It's over a year now and idea was published in 2015. There is so much inconsistency on Microsoft side when it comes to new services it's ridicolous. There are 4 different task managers, that can't be used together or in sync, the hierarchy of products is so confusing its impossible to tell what to use... It looks like there are departments in Microsoft that no one manages but they are all doing what they think it's best with ZERO coordination between them.

Having all the tasks from all diferent enviroments on one place is the only sensible way to GTD. Everything else will fail.

I have tasks coming from all directions - Planner, Dynamics 365, Sharepoint Lists, etc - if tasks from all of those sources could appear grouped within Microsoft To-Do and ultimately Outlook (with links back to the source for each) - To-Do's "My Day" review would give us one list to rule them all, finally bringing sanity to so many apps and their disparate task islands.

Would be very beneficial if tasks "flagged" for follow-up in outlook were sent over to the planner hub. Instead of the traditional follow-up "today, tomorrow,this week, next week", etc. you could select the bucket to place it in, member of team to assign it to, and due date. Reduces having to input manually after you have already read and flagged the email.

Just thought I'd add my voice to the pile. Please move this functionality to the top of the priority list. I agree that this is a fundamental feature that should have been built in from the beginning. We'll be ok if you roll this out yesterday.

It's hard to incorporate Planner as a team level task manager without Outlook Task integration. I cannot expect everyone in facility to open a web browser and log into "Planner", but everyone has outlook open all the time!

Really a non-sense this lack of integration. We will seriously consider not to use Planner for this reason, since it creates a mess for users: there is calendar integration but not task integration. Of course there are third party addins to achieve that integration, but it doesn't make sense to pay extra money to see Microsoft products integrating other Microsoft products. The request is already there for one year, is there any realistic date when we can expect Planner to fully integrate with Outlook?

It's hard to imagine why this isn't already integrated. Our team has been "trying" to use 365 for a couple months now, but nothing seems to be user friendly. Groups and sites are auto created, but do not sync with other group tools. Some sites allow external users, and some do not (regardless of external sharing settings in admin center)

It just seems like some of this stuff should be common sense for a company like Microsoft.

To put it bluntly, Office 365 causes me more headaches than the actual projects we are trying to track.
